Bums in a heated nerd fight!

As skateboarders, we constantly run into bums and have interesting tales to tell.  This time the skateboarder is a bum…Last Wednesday, two bums in San Francisco got into an intense debate on quantum physics. It didn’t end well at all. Read the epic article from the SFGate


Marisa’s Chicken Session

Our girl Marisa Dal Santo starred in an edit with her friend Dane Burman.  I have to admit…this edit makes me hungry. Not hungry to skate, but serious feasting hungry.  It could just be that I only had one piece of pizza for lunch today. 

There’s nothing like skating a flat bar with fried chicken in your hand.

Go Skateboarding Day with HH in NYC

posted by Peter on June 25, 2009

Somehow, the rain held off long enough for Go Skateboading Day to happen for HH in New York.  The second we pulled up to the Manhattan bridge Park, the van was mobbed.  The boys got a minute to skate.  Moves were completed—minds were blown.  Then the mob moved the sesh to the banks.  The Brooklyn Banks might be the best spot ever.  Devin (kf manny blunt fakie manny sequence) wasted no time and front rocked the wallride second try, epic.  Shortly after, the rain showed up and the sesh was over.  Good times were had by all.

Everyone that didn’t show up, you blew it. . .

Antwuan Dixon or Big Kandy as he’s known was part of the first year of Hometown Heroes.  Since then, he’s moved on up to get a grip of tattoos and a fresh interview in Skateboarder Magazine. Below is Antwuan’s sign-up sheet for the Hometown Heroes contest he skated in.

Want to see a little bit of what tour life is?

posted by HH Van on June 24, 2009

To some, tour life would be a dream come true. You might think of trashing hotel rooms, partying ‘til all hours of the night, and waking up and not knowing where you are. Well fortunately, we have no documentation of things like that. 

What we do have are the behind the scenes shots that aren’t in any of the edits. 

Enough ramble, check out the Photo section and/or keep up with the HH - Tour life set on our Flickr account.  Skitch on the van, keep up!
